I gave this piece depicting the iconic sign @atthewaldorf to @stpauls to @helpstpauls a few years ago. It has recently gone missing from St. Paul's Hospital. The piece is 40"x30" in size.
If you happen to come across it, please contact the VPD, St Paul's Foundation or myself

Programming note: today will be the last day of charts.
After 18 months, I’ll be heading back to my job of reporting on local politics in Metro Vancouver.
